Rowland rests quietly within the embrace of the Derbyshire Dales. It lies 4.0 km north of Bakewell (from Bakewell: bearing 355°T, OS grid SK 213 725), and is situated north-east of Great Longstone village. The hamlet’s stone cottages, weathered by centuries of wind and rain, seem to absorb the very light of the Peak District, casting soft shadows across their ancient walls. A gentle rise in the land offers expansive views towards the rugged contours of the surrounding White Peak, a landscape that breathes with a quiet, enduring beauty. Though small, Rowland possesses a palpable sense of place, where the murmur of the wind through the grass carries the echoes of generations. The air here often holds a subtle, earthy scent, a promise of the fertile soil that has sustained life in this corner of the East Midlands for so long.
